Antibodies mediate a broad array of non-neutralizing Fc-mediated functions against HIV-1 including antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP).

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) Some HIV vaccines trigger the immune system to produce antibodies against immune complexes rather than directly targeting the virus. This phenomenon occurs after ...

The new observation came about when Ward's team was using advanced imaging tools to study how antibodies evolve after multiple HIV vaccine doses. A technique invented by the lab, known as Electron ...

Introduction: A limited subset of HIV-1 infected adult individuals typically after at least 2-3 years of chronic infection, develop broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs), suggesting that highly ...

New Scripps Research on HIV vaccination reveals antibodies that target immune complexes, a discovery that could revolutionize vaccine strategies. (Transmission electron micrograph of HIV-1 virus ...

A unique reaction in which antibodies bind to other antibodies may help scientists at Scripps Research better understand how to design a vaccine ...

10, 2024 — A newer vaccine against hepatitis B virus was clearly superior to an older vaccine type in inducing a protective antibody response among people living with HIV who didn't respond to prior ...

Stewart, 19, a sophomore communications major at Morehouse College, knows all too well. In December 2023, Stewart was only ...

Scripps Research scientists found that HIV vaccination can lead to the production of anti-immune complex antibodies (blue) that recognize immune complexes composed of antibodies (green ...

Antibodies are crucial immune proteins that help our bodies fight infections by recognizing and binding to pathogens, providing key clues about their weaknesses. At Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center in ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) An HIV vaccine candidate has been developed that effectively guides immune cells to evolve into broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs). In mouse studies, the ...
